This message asks recipients to pray for the recovery of Greg Comer, who battled cancer for seven years. But, sadly, Mr Comer passed away on the 26th February 2011.
The message began circulating via Facebook and other social networking sites back in 2011. It has continued to circulate sporadically in the years since and again gained momentum on Facebook in 2017.
The information in the message was confirmed via a Facebook Event Page that was set up for Greg Comer and his family in 2011. The event page explained that, at the time that Jacob’s prayer request message first began circulating in early January 2011, Mr Comer was in a coma and his family was warned that he may only have a short time left to live.
However, later updates noted that he came out of his coma and was able to return home for a time. But, he passed away soon after.
An example of the message:
Greg Comer has battled cancer for almost 7 yrs. The doctors are giving him only days to live. Greg is 41, married & has 2 children, Jacob 11 & Alyssa 7. Jacob has asked his Mom for a special request, for everyone to pray for a miracle for his daddy. He wants a prayer chain across the world. Please pray for Greg and help start this prayer chain across the world for Jacob.
Copy & re-post, and add your city and state before posting in order to keep prayer chain going.
